Trib: Giving Goedde Comeuppance
In his weekly Cheers & Jeers column, Lewiston Tribune editorialist Marty Trillhaase gives cheers to ...
... To former Idaho state Sen. Tim Corder, R-Mountain Home. He's calling out a member of his own team, Senate Education Committee Chairman John Goedde, R-Coeur d'Alene. A sponsor of the infamous Luna laws that voters overwhelmingly repealed last year, Goedde supported re-enacting portions of those laws that undermined teacher employment rights. Says Corder: "For the Greeks, hubris was a crime. Those who committed such egregious and heinous acts against the very liberties of mankind were prohibited from holding public office. Today, by public apathy, we reward (or at least fail to punish) public displays of wanton disregard for the public will (hubris) with continued terms in office - and other things."
Question: Which state senator from Kootenai County had the worst legislative session in 2013 -- Goedde or Bob Nonini, both of Coeur d'Alene, or Steve Vick, of Dalton Gardens?
